The best medical writer's claim that
the successful remedy for nasal catarrh
must be nominating, easy of application,
and one that will by Its own action, reach

The history of the efforts to treat catarrh
during the past few years obliger us to ad-
NIT that only one remedy has completely
met these conditions, and that is Ely's
Cream Balm. This safe and pleasant rem
edy has mastered catarrh as nothing else
has never done, and both physicians and
patients freely concede this fact. The
more distressing symptoms quickly yield

A Continuance Which Deadens the Deafen-

A Continuance Which Deadens the Deafen-
ms Noise of Escaping Steam.
Philadelphia Record
The deafening noise made by locomotives in
the Broad-street Station, when starting out
with trains, has been such a source of complaint
from employees about the building, and from
passengers, that the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company is now experimenting with a very
simple continuance, the invention of General
Russell Thayer, the chief engineer of Paramount
Park, designed to do away with the ear-splitting
racket 1t is of iron, and in appearance is much
like an engines smokestack in miniature. and is
arranged to be placed within the smokestack
directly over the pipe that receives the exhaust
steam from the cylinders. Two perforated iron
plates are fitted in it, the lower one at an angle
to the axis Of the steam pipe to break the
impact of the outcomiug steam, and the other
directly across the top. The latter plate IS
vex. and SO thickly perforated with small holes
as to offer larger opening for the escape of the
steam than the orifice of the steam-pipe
The effect of the continuance is that the
eusslon made by the exhaust steam is so broken
up by the steam being forced through the small
perforatiou that there is practically no noise at
quietly and without commotion. That there
may be no interference with the draft the noise
suoduer, as it may be called. is arranged that
the engineer, by means of lever, throw It
back from above the steam-pipe soon he
shall be out of the station.
The whole device is very simple, and after
three months experimental use has proved sue
cessfui Thirteen engines on the Pennsylvania
railroad are now fitted with the noise subduers,
and the Baltimore q Ohio railroad is going to
make trial of them.
